[center][b]MAKING SURE I DO AT LEAST ONE A DAY [s]I SWEAR[/s][b][/center]
Fellow Flight Risers:
Are YOU a fellow appreciator of the delicate little Fae breed? Perhaps you aren't, because you're not sure how awesome they are. Perhaps you too can identify with one of the following problems common to that of Fae owners:
[LIST]
[*] You understand that in terms of size:firepower ratio they are unmatched, but are unsure of the best colors that your war mage should be flying to properly support your team.
[*] You can't quite glean from the monotone whether they like that particular gene, or whether their crests are flipping out for a completely different reason.
[*] There's not a single insect within a 30 mile radius of your lair, but you have no idea how to make them dress sharply for that hunting time. Fae wings are difficult!
[*] You want to check out that perfect piece of apparel and how it actually looks, but the cost is making your Fae's crests flap like a semaphore dance off in a hurricane.
[*] Your lair has absolutely NO FAE (what) and you too want to experience the joys of their entire lair collapsing on a regular basis.
[*] NEW: Perhaps you'd like to ask one of our Fae questions about what it is to be a Fae! Learn how to better communicate with your unusual nest mates!
[/LIST]
Then look no further, for I am here to assist! Whatever advise you need with Fae I am more than happy to dispense. Simply ping away and my expert Fae team will be happy to provide you with the answers you need.
EDIT:
So now this is under way and it's gloriously fun, a few quick things :D
[LIST]
[*] No more than 3 dragons please! These replies can take a long time to researh and type out.
[*] If you're after gene advice, unless otherwise advised I'll give you a 'no limits' and a 'treasure only' version. If you're specifically after treasure only genes, or say really don't want to see Clown, let me know!
[*] I'm not going to pretend that I don't have favourite genes and that's going to come out. Underbelly is one of my great go to's. If you too have favourite genes, tell me!
[*] If you're after apparel advice, where possible I'll link you my own dragons to take inspiration from so you can [i]see [/i]the look I'm describing. If you want to copy that, go ahead! There's no way I'm going to get offended.
[*] Expect in character goodness. I'm going to challenge myself to write a bit here, get myself back into the habit!
[*] I am terrible at updating but I refuse to let this thread die! If you're not getting a response, please send a Fae to poke my lazy clan. I'm going to start doing at least 1 a day to catch up with all the very patient folk in this thread.

This is my progen and clan matriarch. As you can see, she is a glorious, spooky wizard. Powerful. Mysterious. Her presence is haunting. She's totes magical.
The trouble is... I have no idea what to do with her tert. It's... purple. Which isn't a horrid color, I guess. Just... hard to work with.
Crackle, Circuit, and Gembond cover up her lovely eyespots. Underbelly would be practically invisible with her attire. And smoke just looks...ehhh... to me.
Perhaps you could give some advice?

Oh purple! I love purple! And I so hear you about the whole tertiary thing - I have the same problem! Most of it just gets in the way of my wings and Underbelly is just not going to be seen!
I totally agree with what your clan leader says, Grimoire - Crackle, Circuit and Gembond are all over your Eyespots and that's just not cool. Smoke...I think it looks eh because then although you keep your lovely eyespots it becomes too bright, and you have such lovely muted colors that to bring it out too much looks garish!
If you're going to pick a tertiary then Underbelly might really work, and actually [i]because [/i]it's going to be mostly hidden by apparel. Then you just get little glimpses of bright, and that can really add to the 'ooooh spooky' feel. You can tell anyone who asks that it's really your awesome magical power glowing through your skin, and you have to keep it contained with special magical wraps.
At the end of the day - maybe the right gene hasn't appeared for you yet! There's nothing wrong with an unexpressed tertiary. Maybe Point will be a good one, as it's rumoured to be limited just to the tips of limbs and wings. No need to rush! Your perfect gene will find you some day!

Aaaah, a fellow lady of the Earth Flight. I would be delighted to assist.
Your apparel would depend on what image you would wish to project to your clan. A leader should project poise and dignity - not be flittering about wearing whatever he can grab out of the wardrobe like some lackadaisical Wind ninny.

Where was I. Oh yes. Poise. Dignity.
So this will depend on what you want. Maybe you wish to show yourself as a vicious, fearless warrior. Or perhaps as a beautiful, mysterious magess. I think to give you a full answer, I would want some more information on your story, Kestrel. Give me a summary. Let me see what we can find that fits!

This is Tiz. He's my little Light-inspired Fae, and I love him to bits. Since he's light inspired, I wanted to give him the light festival apparel, but... it actually doesn't look as good on him as I hoped. Especially that sunguard chest just looks plain weird.
Maybe you have an alternative idea? :) it would help a great deal to hear the opinion of a fellow Fae-lover :)

A Light Fae! Yaaaaay! I'm Light-inspired too!
Something you can do with that weird Sunguard chest is hide it! Hide it under other things! Hide the parts that don't look right! Things that are lovely and light. I really like the White and Gold Flair Scarf for this, though it's a bit of a tough slog to get! As well as that, you can hide it with the Daisy Leis (Marigold would work too! Yellow wins!) The result is you can't see most of the weirdness of the Sunguard but you can still tell what is underneath it all. Something else that would do the same job would be a Golden Silk Scarf - or maybe the Gossamer one. Or for something much easier to get, what about a brown wooly coat? Or a cape! Anything that covers up that awkward neck bit is what you're looking for.
Here's what I look like, and what I did to hide the weird bit:

Lastly, you can also finish the Light look off by getting the lovely gold bangles - here, let me get Petal to give you an idea. Some of that is gem-bought things but, here they are so you can see what you would look like!

Louve here is a gorgeous gen1 I snagged, and I adore her colors, but I'm finding it hard to think of a gene combo that doesn't look dull and washed out. So far the only way I can get her wings to look nice is to turn her into a guardian, but I wanna know if you guys can think of a gene combo that looks nice on her as a fae!

Thanks a lot for your advice! The idea with the white and gold flair scarf is really good :D
I got Tiz from the user AugustusCaesar, they have a Fae pair that only produces goldenrod/banana/banana light hatchlings!
I bet they would happily sell you one of their next clutch, if you are interested c:

"This one. Jinbaba. Used to be Guardian, now fae. (Much more attractive, I think). He fights now. Big hit for small fae, very proud. Needs circuit, yes, but other genes? New clothes? Need ideas."
The Obsidian and jade fae blinks in confusion, as if perplexed by the fae chatter around him. Probably because he's not used to fae conversation. That said, he stands wary and looks around, flitting between Babau and anything that might potentially cause a threat.

"This one, Busy. Very aggressive. Not very strong, but fiery. Needs something. Not sure what. New clothes? Hmm. Not sure."
Busy glares at Babau and looks around as if looking to pick a fight with someone, despite the fact that she would very likely lose and fight picked. She wisely refrains.
Babau then looks left and right, and slips closer to speak a bit more privately.
"Been thinking of new genes, myself. Spring tertiary, not so good. Thinking ripple/current/circuit? Am I missing anything?" She examines her wings, dressed gaudily to hide the lack of genes. She seems self-conscious of this fact, despite her high-and-mighty attitude.
